People will never know how hard it is to get information, especially if it's locked up behind official doors where, if politicians had their way, they'd stamp 'top secret' on the color of the walls.

I'm of Arab background.
Helen Thomas
I love my work, and I think that I was so lucky to pick a profession where it's a joy to go to work every day.
Helen Thomas
I don't think there are any rude questions.
Helen Thomas
We got the vote, which we should've been born with, in 1920. Everything we've had to struggle for - it's ridiculous.
Helen Thomas
If we lose our title of land of the free, what have we got?
Helen Thomas
I don't think a tough question is disrespectful.
Helen Thomas
I wrote that President Bush is passing on to President-elect Obama two wars and an economic debacle. I call it a depression. And he is arming Israel against the Palestinians in every way in Gaza.
Helen Thomas
But when will our leaders learn - war is not the answer.
Helen Thomas
Get the hell out of Palestine.
Helen Thomas
You didn't tell a lie, you just left a big hole in the truth.
Helen Thomas
The day Dick Cheney is going to run for president, I'll kill myself. All we need is another liar... I think he'd like to run, but it would be a sad day for the country if he does.
Helen Thomas
Everybody is in the pocket of the Israeli lobbies.
Helen Thomas
All presidents rail against the press. It goes with the turf.
Helen Thomas
We are owned by propagandists against the Arabs. There's no question about that. Congress, the White House, and Hollywood, Wall Street, are owned by the Zionists. No question in my opinion. They put their money where their mouth is...We're being pushed into a wrong direction in every way.
Helen Thomas
I'm a liberal, I was born a liberal, I'll be one 'til I die, what else should a reporter be when you see so much and when we have such great privilege and access to the truth?
Helen Thomas
I had a lot of fun bantering back and forth with Kennedy. But for ease and comfort, it would be Gerald Ford. He was a down-home type. I came from the Midwest and he came from the Midwest. He was nonaggressive and kindly.
Helen Thomas
When you're in the news business, you always expect the unexpected.
Helen Thomas
I deeply regret my comments I made last week regarding the Israelis and the Palestinians. They do not reflect my heart-felt belief that peace will come to the Middle East only when all parties recognize the need for mutual respect and tolerance. May that day come soon.
Helen Thomas
I'm decrepit but I don't want to give up, and I love my work.
Helen Thomas
I covered two presidents, LBJ and Nixon, who could no longer convince, persuade, or govern, once people had decided they had no credibility, but we seem to be more tolerant now of what I think we should not tolerate.
